Wendy Williams has told Corey Feldman to "go home" in a segment discussing his new documentary.
This comes after the actor made the accusations in an explosive new documentary, (My) Truth: The Rape of 2 Coreys, which has already been slammed by Charlie Sheen's publicist, who described it as making a "sick, twisted claim".

Williams addressed Feldman's claims on Tuesday's episode of The Wendy Williams Show, where she said that the 48-year-old should "go home, sit down, and be glad you aren't dead in the Bronx River for messing with such high-powered people."
Per the Sun, the documentary was scheduled to air in private screenings on Tuesday, and for those who had paid to watch it at early at home. However, those who fell into the latter category were unable to see it because of technical issues.
In the documentary, Feldman claims that Sheen raped his late best friend, Corey Haim, who passed away in 2010. Sheen has denied all accusations of sexual misconduct. Haim's mother has also denied the accusations.

In a statement to the Huffington Post, Sheen said: "These sick, twisted and outlandish allegations never occurred."
Williams had paid to see the documentary early and was disappointed that she never got a chance to see it.
She said during her Hot Topics segments: "Corey, you know I love you. We've known each other for a very long time. But you knew this was never to happen or at least, I knew it. While you were here, there were a few things you said, sitting on the couch, that I was looking at real crookety.
"Like number one, that you will act again. No, you won't. People aren't hiring Corey Feldman, and he's such a lovely man, but he's part of a movement that is so necessary - molesting and raping children - so necessary but even as he was talking about promoting that thing for $20 we were supposed to be watching last night at 11. I knew in my mind and said 'This isn't going to happen' but I put hot topics on it and paid the $20...
"And you saw, nothing happened. Now, I want my $20 back. Corey, you owe this show $80. I don't even know where you even thought this was going to actually happen."
Williams then addressed the content of the documentary that she was unable to watch, saying: "Corey accused Charlie Sheen of raping Corey Haim when he was 13 years old.
"The two Corey's are best friends but one of them is dead now - [Haim] passed away. I heard this before, years ago, I wasn't shocked. I wanted to hear something different.
"Don't you remember that came out? Don't you remember [The Tale of Two Coreys]? It was on Lifetime. That movie was really good."
She then concluded what she said by controversially declaring: "So how about you go home, sit down and be glad you aren't dead in the Bronx River for messing with such high powered people?"
Williams' remark sparked outrage on social media.
One Twitter user wrote: "Wendy Williams told a child abuse survivor to be grateful they're still alive but to go home and shut their mouth."

Another added: "Wendy is a backstabber. She gave the same kind of support not support to R. Kelly. Why Corey Feldman thought she would care about him, and go against people like Charlie Sheen shows how naive he is."
